Lucy was rescued in 2014 from a case in Hampshire Il., along with over seventy five other horses. Lucy had not been handled in years, and as a result she was terrified to be haltered, lead, touched by a human hand or leave her stall, where she had been locked away in darkness for over two years. Lucy now loves people, places and pasture…
